[J. Cole Verse 1]
Strictly for the survivors
The 800 number dodgers
Boy what I tell your ass bout picking up that phone
When the number unknown, tell them people I ain't home
Half black learning white lies
Niggas broke her heart now she trying white guys
Too ashamed to bring around cause her home girls'll clown like
Girl I ain't know you like them bite size!
She embarrassed now, All in cause she gotta meet his parents now
They probably think I'm no good for 'em
Too dark, too thick, too hood for 'em
Now she sitting at the dinner table wondering what I'm doing here
They got me feeling like a job interview in here
They asking questions bout a five year plan
She saying where I'm from they can never understand
They can never understand
[Hook]
Look at me, I just can't believe
What they've done to me
You can never get free
I just want to be
I just want to be
Look at me, I just can't believe
What they've done to me
You can never get free
I just want to be
I just want to dream
[Verse 2: J. Cole]
(The fuck is that smell?)
Yea, I smell bullshit it must be an election year
The more I listen man the more you sound less sincere
Still I'm watching CNN tryna keep up
In my interviews, maybe I should speak up
Tell the world how it feel like you lying all the time
Keeping niggas walking around blind all the time
But them same niggas thinking I'm fucking dimes all the time
Like I'm walking round with money on my mind all the time
And I feed into it
I'd rather make tracks where I bleed into it
The single's only the look
To sell these niggas the book
I can only pray that one day you'll read into it
If not, fuck it, I got my own problems
Fuck ya beats nigga, I produce my own albums
I zone out, that O Town that I've grown out of
Was born out of being broke with hope
But it don't matter, I'm on Saturn now and I won't shatter
As long as blood grows in my bone marrow
I'm gone, gather my thoughts as sharp as a bow and arrow
Back when I no dough and no appealer
My flow is sterile
Now I'm all aware of all the bears a nigga face
Load a pistol with a niggas plates
As a nigga fake and while they call that shit a race
The agony of defeat wish the elite could get a taste
[Hook]
Look at me, I just can't believe
What they've done to me
You can never get free
I just want to be
I just want to be
Look at me, I just can't believe
What they've done to me
You can never get free
I just want to be
I just want to dream
